Migration instructions

In the future (maybe as early as v1.9.0) this camera will be removed, please use the CameraComponent instead.

This is the simplest way of using the CameraComponent:

  1. Add variables for a CameraComponent and a World to your game class

    final world = World();
late final CameraComponent cameraComponent;

  2. In your onLoad method, initialize the cameraComponent and add the world to it.

    @override
void onLoad() {
  cameraComponent = CameraComponent(world: world);
  addAll([cameraComponent, world]);
}

  3. Instead of adding the root components directly to your game with add, add them to the world.

    world.add(yourComponent);

  4. (Optional) If you want to add a HUD component, instead of using PositionType, add the component as a child of the viewport.

    cameraComponent.viewport.add(yourHudComponent);
